Re: Folding Frogs Crap thread!

first choice is another elentra. if that falls through...looking at a saturn ion 3. if that falls through...well...we are still looking.

Re: Folding Frogs Crap thread!

Glad to hear you're alright. I still get the shakes when I think of how close I was to killing most of my family in my first accident.

'couple years ago, I was driving a pretty secluded highway--No cell service--at night. Just after dusk, we left the place where we ate dinner. I was a pretty new driver at the time, and my parents had made a big deal about lowering my high-beams for oncoming traffic. So I didn't have my high-beams on, cause there were cars in the distance. Suddenly, I saw a really big dead animal (I think it was an elk) in the road in front of me. I didn't know what would have happened if I hit it, so I swerved around it. The road was slick with blood so I span out, and the car went over the bank backwards, busted up all the driver-side panels, and sent our luggage flying out of the trunk.

The only injury, other than my pride, was a small bruise I got on my shoulder from the pillar that the driver's seatbelt is mounted to. I agree with Jeremy Wills. Any accident you can walk away from is a good one.
